I have just flashed my miui on my o2x. It is nice. but a problems comes up.
The default mounting sd card is the internal sd, so all my game data were downloaded to the internal and it was full.
May anyone teach me how to change the default sd card to external sd card just like cm7??
Yeah Ive been asking the same question with no reply,I guess we cant use our sd cards as the default storage,since i have tons of heavy games that would be perfect

I just bought a SD card(8gb) to my SGS but my problem is that, when i'm about to download for example the sd card files(not the apk file) for Dungeon Defenders:First wave it says that there is no room for it on my internal SDcard so how do i install the files on my external sd card(2.5 GB left)? Is it something wrong with my sd card or is it just a setting? Because it must be possible to install the SD files to the external SD card and not just the internal SD card?
PS i got a Micro SD hc.
I am pretty sure you can't dl those files to an external, only internal. Try moving other files to your external to free up some space on your internal.
Thats what I have recently learnt,
its misleading to have a name apps2sd & not able to move apps to external sd.
Apps2sd, does mean moving an app to your external sd, just not the file for gameloft and other games requiring extra dl.

I don't understand what you mean, does apps2sd move the apps which don't require extra dl to external sd?
I don't think so as I cant move them to external by any means it only moves to internal sd partition.
I use a 32GB class 10 micor SD. I tried to transfer the isntalled apps from phone to the external SD using "App 2 SD". I note that the apps were actually moved to the internal SD card but not the external SD. The photos and the video can be saved to the exteranl SD though.
I am new user of Android phones. Did I do anything wrong or app just can't be saved in external SD?
the internal sd is your external sd for app2sd.
earlier phones didnt have an internal sd. so there it was written on the external.
maybe you could reroute the paths. but for an normal user this could be hard.
So I think all phone with intwrnal SD Card has the same poblem.
Can the problem be solved when upgraded to 2.3?

Jup, all phones with an internal sd have this probs afaik.
but you can change the paths, so the external card becomes the internal.
i dont know how the paths are routed in gingerbread, but it should be tha same.
if you want to change this search in the dev section, there is a description.
I just got a new revo yesterday, and while poking around I noticed that the 12 Gb of internal memory is mounted as an sd card, while the actual sd card is mounted as a sub dir called _ExternalSD. Has anyone else noticed this?
Yep, you have 16gb internal and 16gb external
Yeah, but the point is that the internal memory is not being mounted as internal, it's being mounted as an sd card (with the actual sd card being a sub directory). I can see several problems with this, mostly with trying to transfer data. Or if you had a 32 GB card that you wanted to use for whatever instead, unless you can specify where a program stores stuff, it's going to store data on the "SD Card", which in this case is not the removable sd card. I guess if you want to transfer stuff you just have to remember to move it all the the "_ExternalSD" sub directory first, or you are going to plug your card in somewere else and wonder why there's nothing on it...
Not sure about your phone but mine saves to the real sd card. things i want on my internal memory, things i want saved on my sd card go to external sd card.
Hi there, I know that theres a lot of posts on this forum regarding this issue but i didn't find comprehensive answer to how to move Apps to an External SD card on the G Note.
I'm not an expert with Android as I am in the transition from the iPhone, but I'm not too much of a noob as I have a bit of knowledge due to hacking and jailbreaking with the iPhone.
Now here is my problem. I have a lot of Apps that are hogging my storage and I have come to a point where I cannot install anymore Apps. When I try to copy it to the external SD card (16gb Class 10), it is actually copying it to the internal SD card. I have tried all those Apps like App2SD and I still haven't had any luck. I even tried all the tutorials on this site and still no luck.
I know there are easy methods with Froyo, but I don't want to downgrade as I am currently on "ICS(4.0.4) Stunner Beta 5.0" and it runs like a dream on the Note! If worse case scenario that I have to downgrade to achieve this, the lowest I will go back to is a factory rooted Gingerbread.
Even when I was on factory rooted Gingerbread I still had this same problem before the upgrade.
Right now the only way is to edit vold.fstab file but that will cause bigger issues with ICS and Stunner in particular
Your best hope is wait for a new version of Stunner where the internal sd card is mounted @ /mnt/emmc and the external sd card is mounted @ /mnt/sdcard and that should solve your issues completely
I read Neo talking about it and I think he will implement this structure in the next release
Thanks for the quick reply! Thats great news.. If i have to wait for a Stunner update, is there another ICS or Gingerbread release or tweak that could fix this?

I have micromax funbook with ICS 4.0.3..in my tablet internal sd card is mounted @ /mnt/sdcard and the external sd card is mounted @ /mnt/extsd - Even I need a solution as most HD games are huge and its usable internal memory is only around 2gb.
In my friends Samsung Galaxy S external sd card was mounted as "sd card" and we were able to move installed apps to 16gb memory card need this fix.

Try searching re-partitioning your internal memory. It increases your current 2 GB Max internal memory to 4-6-8-10 GB by reducing your internal sd card. This way you can install many apps without having to move it here n there. thread is by @metalgearhathaway.
A problem
Actually, i modified the vold.fstab file and partially bricked my tablet. It gets stuck on the booting logo and recovery console seems to be useless because the wipe data/factory reset option doesn't work. It's an A23 based 7 inch tablet for which i'm unable to find a ROM to flash it with. Any help would be appreciated. Or is there any way to re-modify the vold.fstab file to the old state? Or to reset the ROM?
I have marshmallow stock rom and I use sd card as internal storage, but the applications in the sd card don't work properly.For example facebook or skype delay to start. My sd card is 16 gb class 10, and its a petty if it is useless.Please help.
I got this problem too. I think its the problem in the encryption because now its encrypted as ext4 i think and you cant acess SD card it without phone through SD reader. If you got a solve for this problem someone,get an advice please. My only solve is that: dont move appliactions on sd card,only games i have on sd card now. Sorry for bad english.
